Kai Makana takes an active role in educating and mobilizing
the public to better understand and preserve marine life and the ocean
environment. Through educational youth mentorship and community-based
programs, Kai Makana motivates people to protect, preserve, and respect the
ocean as an ecosystem central to our health, wellness and happiness.

Our vision is a healthy viable ocean environment sustained by
youth, family, and communities who actively participate to preserve, protect and
care for our ocean and marine life.

We envision a world where people show respect for the ocean
through their everyday actions.

We believe that family participation and community prescribed
allocation of responsibility and accountability, are essential to effective and
efficient outcomes that are meaningful to the community itself, as well as to our
youth.
